Maynards Candy is doing something super fun. "Like" their Facebook page, upload a photo of yourself and you could be turned into candy. Well, an image of candy anyway. So do you want to be a Sour Patch Kid, a Fuzzy Peach, a Sour Cherry Blaster or a Swedish Berry?
Candy-coat yourself and then submit a brief statement as to why your face belongs on one of their yummy treats. The top ten faces submitted by September 30th will be showcased on the page, and a random drawing on October 24th will determine the winner of some cash, a trip for two to Toronto, a tour of the Maynards factory and a year's supply of candy featuring your face!

Hang out with us!

We heart you. Do you heart us?

About Us

I’ve worked as an Entertainment Editor at ELLEgirl and Teen People magazine, which basically means I got paid to listen to music, interview celebrities and watch movies (I know, hard gig). I can be found roaming the streets of Brooklyn, NY, listening to Spotify and singing to myself.
